Flexible conforming diver's and swimmer's snorkel

Abstract

A flexible diver's snorkel is disclosed having a mouthpiece fluidly connected to a plurality of flexible interconnected linked passages having plural joints for orientation of the linked passages in X Y and Z directions with respect to the passages of the multiple links. The snorkel can be configured to conform to the side of a user's face and has an arcuate upright section with an extension for extending behind a user's head.

What is claimed is: 
     
       1. A flexible snorkel comprising a mouthpiece fluidly connected to a first one of a plurality of serially interconnected ball and socket joint links, said links forming an elongated continuous flexible air passage from said mouthpiece to a last one of said plurality of links, said links being manually separable from and reconnectable to one another to permit selective modification of the length of said snorkel with the removal or addition of said links in said plurality. 
     
     
       2. The flexible snorkel recited in claim 1 wherein said serially interconnected ball and socket joint links are interconnected with sufficient friction for said snorkel to retain its shape after said links are adjusted in angle relative to one another.
